Hello Bonita,

I am creating a process using BOS 7.1.3, I have defined BDM’s Like Name, Reason, Status as MyRequest name.

Now I went to Pool and Selected → In Details Tab - > Data → Business variables → Add → Gave it a name - >Selected **MyRequest ** from Business Object dropdown and Finish.

Now clicked on Execution → Contract → Add from Data → and checked Name and Reason fields and Finish.

Now clicked on Manager Review (Human Task) → Execution → Contract → Add from Data → and checked Name, Reason, Status fields and Finish, and assigned actor as Initiator Manager.

Now I went to Pool → details tab → Execution → Contract → Clicked on Pencil Icon and a form got opened, renamed it and adjusted the style.

Done same for Manager review (Human Task).

Now I clicked on Run and it opened n browser and I entered Name, Reason Fields: with John, I am on a vacation.

Now I went to Manager Login and it has the Manager Review task, When I clicked on Do IT the Form page has no previous field values (like John, I am on a vacation)

How to Get previous form field values in Manager Review Task?

Take a look at section “Retrieve the case context” at http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bpm-api-849#case
You need to define an External API variable with an url “…/{{context.businessData_ref.link}}” and bind this object’s attributes to appropriate fields.
